Epiphany School Inc.
Mission
Epiphany is an independent school for children of economically disadvantaged families in Boston, with scholarships for all. We admit children of diverse faiths, races, cultures, and cognitive profiles, believing in the Episcopal tradition that we find God in and through each other. In close partnership with families and community partners, we are an innovative learning community. We offer structured support to enable children to discover and develop the fullness of their individual gifts and to help their families thrive. Our Early Learning Center serves infants, toddlers and preschoolers through a rich, child-centered curriculum and whole-family program model to ensure kindergarten readiness and family self-sufficiency. Our Middle School offers small classes, individualized curricula, and extended hours providing rigorous academic, moral and social instruction to children in grades five through eight. Our Graduate Support Program provides abiding educational, personal and career guidance and assistance to our graduates, ensuring they are prepared to contribute intelligently, morally, and actively to the society they will inherit. Our Teacher Training Program supports aspiring urban teachers, including many of our own graduates. Our Impact Center shares best practices to improve educational outcomes on a broad scale. Together we are a school that never gives up on a child.
Vision
Our vision is to close the achievement gap between economically disadvantaged children and their more affluent peers.
Goals
- 1.Bolster our Financial Resources - Undertake a significant capital campaign to meaningfully increase our endowment; meaningfully decrease our reliance on the annual fund; and enable the school to navigate unexpected challenges and capitalize on future opportunities.
- 2.Invest in our Programs - Redouble our effort to systematically review middle school academic programs and expand the review process to include ELC programs and non-academic areas. Conduct a strategic review of the Teaching Fellow Program to ensure we deliver against the dual mandate of enhancing the student experience and developing future teachers.
- 3.Expand our Impact - Develop the mandate of the Epiphany Impact Center to proactively support others in our work and to measure and communicate more clearly our impact on our students/graduates/families and the breadth of our impact beyond our campus.
